The European Parliament voted 440 in favor, 151 against and 50 abstaining to approve legislation implementing the July 2025 EU-U.S. trade framework, the parliament announced in a June 16 press release. The deal removes EU tariffs on most U.S. industrial goods and some agricultural products while accepting a 15% U.S. tariff on EU exports, and EU member states are expected to formally greenlight the texts on June 26.

The vote follows nearly 11 months of legislative delays after Trump threatened to impose additional tariffs on the European Union over Greenland in January and after the Supreme Court's February ruling invalidated much of Trump's tariff authority. Lawmakers also sought additional protections after Trump threatened Spain with a trade embargo over its opposition to U.S. strikes on Iran, but a compromise reached in May significantly softened these safeguards. Trump had also warned he would raise EU car tariffs from 15% to 25% if implementation was not completed by July 4.
